One of the most beloved movies in cinema history, The Shawshank Redemption, is turning 25 and the special milestone will be celebrated in Ohio this week – form August 16th till August 18th.

Deadline has reported that the celebration will take place in the locations where most of the film was shot in back in 1994, and that some cast members will attend the events.

Apart from meeting the stars, fans will be able to visit some of the sites shown in the film, including the Ohio State Reformatory. On August 16th, the film will be screened in the Renaissance theatre in Mansfield – when it was first shown 25 years ago.

Some of the cast members who will attend the events are Bob Gunton (Warden Norton), William Sadler (Heywood), Mark Rolston (Bogs), Frank Medrano (Fat Ass), Scott Mann (Glenn Quentin), and Renee Blaine (Linda Dufresne).

The Shawshank Redemption follows Andy Dufresne (Tim Robbins), a banker wrongfully convicted of the murder of his wife and sentenced to life in prison. He befriends Ellis “Red” Redding (Morgan Freeman) and uses his skills to improve his fellow inmates lives – until he breaks out of prison.

Tim Robbins has read a lot of scripts in his life. It’s only natural considering the Here and Now actor has starred in 73 productions, as well as producing and directing a few. But if you ever wanted to know which is the best script he’s ever read, then listen up.

The 59-year-old recently attended the Karlovy Vary Film Festival (where he received the crystal globe) and sat down with Variety where they discussed a film which made Tim a household name — The Shawshank Redemption.

“It did take me by surprise when it first happened,” the actor said in connection with just how popular the 1994 film became. “I thought the film was really great. I thought the script was the best script I’ve ever read, and I thought there was a great movie made of it. To have that kind of recognition and acknowledgment by so many people — it’s one of those bucket list things. It takes a lot of pressure off of you.”

The film, based upon a Stephen King novel, went on to receive 7 Oscar nominations and has long been regarded as the number 1 movie on IMDB.

We guess Tim was on to something.
